After a discussion of the German energy transition as a soft power resource, the paper provides an in-depth empirical analysis of Germany''s bilateral energy partnerships. The paper argues that the partnerships have been deliberately designed as instruments for mobilizing the Energiewende narrative as soft power.
These developments are propelling the market for battery energy storage systems (BESS). Battery storage is an essential enabler of renewable-energy generation, helping alternatives make a steady contribution to the world''s energy needs despite the inherently intermittent character of the underlying sources.
